Unless We Take Today! - Poem by Eric Cockrell

they are killing, beating, torturing, and imprisoning our brothers and sisters around the world who dareto stand up, and speak out with freedom's voice! and it has already begun here withthe brutalities committed against theOccupy movement...and the recent passage of the 'detainee'bill, which contrary to what our Republican'friends' are trying to sell us, can and willbe used against American citizens...this is a time for prayer, commitment, and a firm resolve not to back down... they cantake anything they want, but they cannottake our freedom as long as we are joined, connected, and one in purpose....the futures of our children depend on the choices we make now! we can make thisa better world, but it's going to take hardwork, faith, listening, and understanding...we cant wait for tomorrow... tomorrow wontcome unless we take today!
